Jan Jakob van Oosterzee
Apparently an article from the 1911 Encyclopedia. May be notable, being a pastor of a university. Doesn't seem very verifyable on the Web. Montchav 19:15, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
 * This AfD nomination was incomplete. It is listed now. DumbBOT 18:13, 27 January 2007 (UTC)


 * Keep - article describes the subject as a published poet, which makes him fairly notable, and if the text is indeed from EB then that alone constitutes adequate verifiability. EB tends to be more reliable than the web. Walton monarchist89 19:30, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Weak keep notability may have disappeared since EB 11th nevertheless no urgent need to delete and verifiable. Arnoutf 20:05, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep, google shows a small number of significant references that his theology writings were influential, including in the US. --Dhartung | Talk 23:21, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep, it may be difficult to sort out the notability of someone dead for over 100 years, but the fact that the man is still cited today should give us a little tip... the article should be worked on though Alf photoman 00:14, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep per above. This is an excellent example of why a web search engine test isn't always best test for encyclopedic value. Agent 86 01:47, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep per above - and with no reservation.Victoriagirl 04:21, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
